I looked at both of these cribs, but ended up with the babyletto Mercer two-tone crib (white & espresso). I absolutely love it! Its design is very contemporary, and it's very sturdy. It's also JPMA-certified, so I know my baby is safe in it. I bought some Nurseryworks bedding for it. It looks absolutely stunning in the nursery!
